Melbourne's Beachside Tramway Suburb: St Kilda!

This video looks at the Melbourne suburb of St Kilda, which is served by a large number of tram routes using a variety of tram classes. All photos, videos and narration by Martin Bennet (me), with the exception of those two shots of tram No.877 showing Route 69, which were taken by my brother Cian.
